My name is Roger C. Parker, and this slide portfolio describes the latest in my ongoing series of nonfiction author interviews.
During the past 10 years, I've interviewed over 500 authors of business, marketing, and personal productivity books. My goal is to better understand the DNA of successful nonfiction books in order to help my clients and Published & Profitable members write their own books and tell their own stories.
These interviews offer you an opportunity to hear today's the the authors of recently-published, bestselling marketing and business books describe their background, their books, and their journey to publication.
Each author has a different story to tell about the origins of their book, the benefits it offers readers, and the lessons they learned planning, writing, promoting, and profiting from their latest book.
As you'll see when you visit the Published & Profitable blog, the recordings are available for later playback, and I usually prepare mind maps showing the table of contents of their later books. Often, I offer transcripts of these recordings.
Each of the books teaches important lessons; lessons that can help you become more creative and/or productive, and lessons that can help you in your journey to writing and publishing success.
I welcome your comments at Roger@publishedandprofitable.com
